Men's basketball

[YsuPride]

So now that football is over it's time to turn our attention to YSU basketball.   We have a good team in Men's.
Defense is the issue but i have the utmost confidence we will get it fixed.

5-2 as we stand now.  Anyone agree!!!!

They are fun to watch!!!

GO GUINS!!!!!!

The team that played pathetic defense for the first 13 minutes at Western Illinois will finish in the second division of the Horizon League.

The team that played fantastic defense for the last 7 minutes of the first half at Western Illinois will contend for the Horizon League title.

Playing defense is hard.  It is not any fun. It requires dedication and commitment to your teammates.  Does this team have those traits?  We start to find out during the toughest league road trip starting on Thursday.

End of 1st half, YSU-34 NKU-33

[YsuPride]

We are losing 40 -39.  Tight game. Defense Defense  Defense

[guinpen]

We cannot have many second chance points

[ucfpengbuck]

Turnovers are killing us.   Need Cohill to step up.

[Cimo7]

We led 56-51 with 1 minute left with the ball. Tie game now. Epic choke job

[ucfpengbuck]

A d1 program should not struggle to inbounds the ball.  Must of had at least 3 turnovers on inbounds.   Up 5 with a minute and can't close the game.

[guinpen]

could not get off a better last shot

[YsuPride]

Overtime..  We are horrible in OT.

[ucfpengbuck]

Both the end of the game and 1st ot the final shot have been airballs although Green's did hit the back of the basket.

[ytownchief22]

Horrible coaching and play making at the end. Embarrassing

[YsuPride]

We are in dire need of defense. Another overtime loss for YSU.

[ucfpengbuck]

Late game and ot offense is Cohill dribbling around.  Why not run the regular offense.  Maybe get the ball inside to your bigs ?  24 turnovers for a senior laden team is beyond sickning.
